the attorney who committed, suicide on

by the approaching revelation OF

made that the liabilities thus accrued
amount to about $l75, eco while the prop.

astonishing revelation discloses the motive
to be nothing more than to keep up Gstyle
of luxurious living beyond his means.

AMMAN root Ban nefe.es.

BosTorI, Novem Der 26.-The coo Harvard
students who went to New York to wit
ness Thursdays football game, claim that
the game was unfairly won by Yale, being
a direct gift by the referee and umpire.
They say that the touchdown made by
Corbin, from which goal was kicked was
unfair. as 1t is distinctly provided in the
rules that the centre rush cannot run with
the bal before it has touched another
man, which it had not in this case. This
would take oI six points from Nale's
score. Then they claim that Sears
made touchdown at least two
minutes before the end OF the
first three quarters. This touch do Gn
was 6isallowed by Referee Cook, of Prince
ton, On the ground that 1t wee made ten
seconds after he had called time. Over
fifty harvard men, who timed the game, will
swear that without counting time taken
out, the totai playing time wac forty'three
minutes. This would have given Harvard
four more points, total OF eleven, and
woald have given the team confidence and
would have won tie game. They say that
the umpire, Hancock, quarterback OF
Princeton, was pre- udiced in his decisions,
and this is shown by the ascertained fact
that he was interested in wager OF Sl75,
Yale against Harvard.

Burned With Their:Homs.

WAUsAU, Wis, November 26.-A hor-i-
bic holocaust occurred in this city at 3
o'clock this morning A building occu-
pied as a residence by Carl Honikel, his
wife and five children, was consumed by
fire, and before assistance could reach
them three of the children persisted, and
the other two and father have since died
of their injuries. Mrs. Honikel is still
alive, but her mi 1ries are of serious
nature. The bu Id ng was a wooden struc-
ture, double boa led, filled in with saw
dust and very -aammable. The front
was used for sleeping rooms aud
the back Is J kitchen. The Ere
started in tie kitchen, end the
family were doubtless asphyxiatcd before
they were reached by the flames. The fire
department were very slow in responding
to the alarm. Chief Gebberdt, of the fire
department, took everybody from the
burning buildings. Honikel was a hard
working, Industrious German. When
dragged through TIE window he had clasp
ed in either arm the inanimate bodies of
two babies. The causualty is one OF the
most dreadful that has happened in this
vicinity, and what makes it seem worse
is that the building was fred by an incen-
diary.
Mrs. HoHikel has, since recovering con-
seriousness, and on learning the fate of her
husband and children, raved like q
maniac, and it is feared that even If she
lives she will be hopelessly insane.

Ahu.esofLive Poultry:

During the summer weeks, live poultry
suffer even unto death from oVercrowding
and insufficient supply OF water In win
ter these much suffering creatures die from
exposure 10 intense cold. These being the
extreme seasons of the year, persons not
familiar with the horror of cOope0-up life
would be reasonable in supposing that az
least slight loss would be experienced dur
ing the spring and autumn. That is the
inference such is not the fact. The
heavy losses entailed by suffering from
improper modes Of transit ara heavy all
the year round, aud are increased
under the Influences OF extreme heat
and extreme cold. In the month OF Ocl0
Der, for example. the sides of the great
freight carrying railways leading into New
York are strewn with the mortal remains
OF poultry that have succumbed to harsh
treatment. Ducks die most readily when
subjected to the combined hsrdships OF
want OF water and want OF air; next to
these, chickens suffer most; then turkeys
and fowls and geese in the order named.
To remedy this evil is the question.
Shippers evidently make 50 much profit
from their investments that they can az
lord the depletion in numbers, bat can the
consumers afford to pay such prices as viii
cover the deficit caused by inhumanity
and sheer carelessness? We think not.

Points or a Good Cow.


We are called on 10 give the points OF a
good COW and some suggestions that will
aid novice in buying satisfactorily.
A COW is in her prime when she is from
four to six years old, and the best paying
time to buy is just after the birth OF her
second or third calf. Prominence and full
ness of milk veins and velvety softness OF
skin are good indications. The milk veins
should run down on either side towards the
udder, be easily perceptible. to the eye, or
readily found by pressure of the baud.
Their hair should not be hard, rough or
staring. Symmetry, fullness and
softDess OF the udder, which
,hould be well spread out projecting
eehind the legs, and also reaching well
forward under the belly; it should feel
Il feshiness,and thickness. The number and
condition of the teats should be natural;
II one teat is lacking, fourth less milk
will be the result. A cows udder is not,
IS some suppose, a barrel with four taps,
but Is divided into four different compart-
ments, called milk glands, each OF which
has its own tap or teat. u is not only inn
portant that the full number of teats be
present and In working order, but it is de-
sirable that they be well placed, not
crowded together, but well apart, and at
nearly equal distances apart; they should
he rather long and tapering. Another
important point is quietness and docility
OF disposition. These qualities are indi-
Gated by large, mild and clear eyes, and
an air OF contentment generally. A COW
that is quiet and contented feeds at ease,
chews her cud with entire satisfaction, and
will secrete more milk than q restless, tur-
bulent animal, even II 1t has similar milk.

OuarreIsome Bulls.

The editor Of the London Stock Journal

porary has Just reported a fight between a
Short-horn bull and a Clydesdale stallion,

This month is comparatively quiet one
ior the bees, as there are scarcely any
broods reared at this season, except In the
warmer climates. Still the beekeeper has
some matters of Importance to attend to,
foremost among which is the care of his
empty brood combs, for they all contain
more or less eggs of the moth miller. How
these eggs get there is still an unsettled
question. Some beekeepers hold 70 the
theory that they are deposited by the
miller on the bottom board, or about the
entrance, and that the bees, when passing
in the hive, or moving about the bottom
beard, get them attached to their feet or
legs, and thus carry them among the
combs. Be this as it may, the fact remains,
the eggs are in the combs, and, il stored in
q warm place, will hatch and soon destroy
them entirely. To prevent this, the combs
should be fumigsted with sulphur
before being put away. The safest way to
keep the empty combs is 10 stretch heavy
wires from one end of the room TO the
other, Just far enough apart for the ends
of COMBS to rest on. The combs should be
about one inch apart, thus admitting light
and free circulation OF air between them.
It is preferable that the combs be stored in
a room in which the tenn perature falls
below freezing, as then there is no danger
from moths, and by hanging the combs on
wires they are also out of the reach of
mice, who are very destructive to combs
